Green River 2009

Our annual trip to the lower green had some unexpected changes at the last minute. Randy was unable to make it at the last minute and so it was just Dan and me. Also the river flows out of Flaming Gorge where dangerously high.(this happened to Lowell, Gordon, CJ, and me many years ago and it ruined the fishing)

Dan and I found some good fishing on the upper Green River in Wyoming. We floated the river 2 days and caught many fish, including a 21 inch Brown trout.
One advantage for this part of the river was the lack of people.
It was an enjoyable trip and will probably do it again.

In the video I comment about Dad going sideways, but his oar lock fell out, so he had no choice.

The Green River

I think we will make this an annual event. Last year we fished the lower Green River and had a good time. This year the same, but the weather didn't cooperate and we had equipment problems. It was still a lot of fun and I enjoyed spending time with Dad and we did catch fish.
The river is popular, but flyfisherman are usually nice people. They release the fish, don't pollute, and respect the river and the beautiful surroundings.
I plan on doing this trip next year. Anyone is welcome to come.

Snowed in!

Well kind of...the snow drifted pretty high in some spots, like around the garage doors. 24 hours of snow and wind created a mess for me. Luckily I didn't have to leave this weekend.

First fish of 2009

I went fishing last Saturday with Aaron Johnson. We fished and explored most of the day and this was the only fish we got. A good fish to start the year with. 18 inch rainbow trout.

Isaac Finds a Sport!!

Isaac finally found a sport he likes. We took him skiing at the snowy range ski resort in Wyoming last Saturday. Other than a few accidents on the chair lifts, he did really great skiing. I told him he needed a sport other than the Wi outdoor challenge.
